When you think of a member who truly embodies the essence of what it means to be Member of
the Year, several names might come to mind. But there is one name that shines just a little
brighter, one presence that radiates just a little stronger, and one heart that serves just a little deeper.
 

That name is Kimberly Kates-Glasgow.
Affectionately known to many of us as Kim, she has been a dedicated, hardworking, and
faithful member of Chi Psi Omega since her initiation over six years ago. And in those six years,
she has exemplified what it means to be “Supreme in Service to All Mankind.”
At every chapter-sponsored event, you’ll find Kim—not just showing up but showing out. She is
truly boots on the ground, especially in her role as Connection and Social Justice Chairman,
where she ensures our voices are heard and our impact is felt across the community.
 

She has also soared to new heights as our Uplift Our Local Community Chairman, leading
one of our most successful partnerships to date. Through her leadership and coordination with
The Beauty Initiative, we hosted an impactful Laundry Day event that made a difference for
countless families. Over 5,200 laundry items were collected, allowing us to provide free
laundry services to local families and youth. That’s more than just a service, that’s restoring
dignity and lightening the load for our neighbors in need.
 

Kim is first to arrive, last to leave, and always ready to lend a hand and a heart. Her
commitment to the success of our International Program Initiatives is unmatched. Her
creativity, intelligence, and innovation have helped us think beyond the ordinary. Her work
with our Empowering Our Families initiative has especially stood out, elevating our mental
health focus and ensuring it reaches those who need it most.
But what makes Kim extraordinary isn’t just what she does, it’s how she does it. With grace.
With kindness. With unwavering sisterly love.
 

She’s that member who checks on the Silver Phoxes, who offers encouragement during life’s
low moments, and who is always willing to roll up her sleeves and serve—no matter the task.
Words like selfless, loving, caring, compassionate, dedicated, and genuine only begin to
describe her. She is a sister’s sister, a quiet storm of excellence, and a shining example of servant leadership.
It is not just an honor; it is a privilege to recognize and celebrate Kimberly Kates-Glasgow as our Member of the Year.
